Thanks @MikeT for the introduction. Yes please bring an offroad flag along as this is a vital safety requirement.

Hi all, not a newbie but I'm bringing my wife and son along and they're inexperienced in the dunes. I wanted to tag along to this drive and give them a taste of the less crazy side of driving in the dunes.

That's the perfect time to get them to enjoy a relaxing Sunday morning! See you soon!

Newbie drive on Sunday

Hi Hakan, copy the lat/long 24°22'55.6"N 54°59'13.2"E into Google maps on your phone (if thats what you are using) and it should work (does for me)

Hi Ishak, thanks for the welcome !

Worked on Google, thank you 🙏

Good afternoon everyone! @Shary @MikeT@Mark J@Amr mostafa@Hakan@Looper@Sergio del Rio@MarkH@Rasna@Sheho@Hartzel@Thomas54675

Thanks for signing up to this drive. 

Some small pointers for tomorrow:

1. Please try to arrive 10-15mins before the meeting time. This will give you time to deflate, set up your flag, and perhaps sip your cup of coffee

2. You can deflate to 14psi if you have normal HT tires, or to 12psi if you have All Terrain tires

3. We will use Channel 10 on the Walkie Talkie: 446.231Mhz. We will test the radios and also bring a couple of spares in case this would be your first drive and don't have procured a radio yet.

The plan is from the starting point to go Eastwards and visit the famous Foxes' Den, a favorite stopover where we might spot some foxes (at least their burrows). From there we will continue further and exit at the ADNOC in Tilal Sweihan.

See you all in the morning. If you encounter issues with the Google Maps, link, you can also copy/paste the decimal coordinates in your Google Maps.
